Great Compliment to EMRI started using their free EMR last year and have been really impressed with how much time it's saves us. This app specifically for onboarding is no different - a big time saver when bringing in new patients.
I'm also really excited to see patient reaction to the new feature that allows them to fill out forms before coming in. We expect this will be a big benefit over other practices here in the city.

So Helpful to Patients & Staff Alike!I was introduced to this as a patient in great pain waiting to see the endodontist for the first treatment in a root canal. Trying to talk to someone or fill out paperwork would have been excruciating. This made my visit so much easier. While filling out fields, spelling was suggested. On many items, all I had to do was touch the stylus to the iPad screen.
On return visits, updating my information was so fast. And there was no standing in line if several people arrived at the same time while the receptionist checked to be sure that all my information was accurate.
Current photo IDs required by insurance companies are quite easy. Add a photo to the file of your patient with the camera of your iPad.
As for the staff, I have no idea how many people-hours per day are spent trying to decipher the bad handwriting of patients, especially when they don't feel well. And my daughter tells me that handwriting is being discontinued as a subject in schools. In a few short years, we will have no option but to go to apps like this one. So check it out and see what you think.

Patient Web PortalYou need to make On Patient a web portal instead of assuming that patients are going to have a half hour in the office, all of their meds and relevant info on hand, and that the receptionist is going to have an iPad for everyone. It would make so much more sense for this to be an app/web page that patients could log in to on their iPad or computer from home so they can have the time, relevant info and it can save my office the time to do more than just manage the On Patient (procedure) that my receptionist is supposed to perform.
After speaking with customer service back in March, when I signed up, they said it would be an available feature by July... Would really like to see this happen soon because I have had to send the info to my patients as a pdf to print off at home and then bring in (so I can quickly scan over it during the office visit) and then spend an hour entering it into the EHR later that night. This one feature would make my entire practice so much more manageable. Please, please, please make this a priority.
